Location of the unit was top notch. Unit was clean and gulf front. Restaurants were convenient (walkable). Bath and bed was cramped but sufficient.

We enjoyed this so much, we didn't use the indoor pool or hot tub because the weather was so amazing. The property was so nice, located great for restaurants shops. Sometimes a little tricky and to just be patient in traffic pulling out

Convenient to local restaurants and great access to the beach. Perfect size for just us two. Only small complaint would be the need for better patio furniture. Otherwise would stay there again.

Hello Lisa,
Thank you for your 5 star review and feedback. We will have our inspector go out and look at the patio furniture.
We would love to have you stay with us again.
This property was so easy to navigate versus staying further west in Orange a beach. No median and forced direction, great restaurants seconds away and quiet!
Fourth of July week was icing on the cake being directly situated in the middle of the beach fireworks shows.
We will definitely return to this location.

Great Area and Very Nice
Thanks so much for letting us stay in your condo! It was just the right size for our family and the great views of the dolphins in the mornings. The condo and the building itself were very clean and everyone was so nice! Our kids loved the pool and never wanted to get out unless we were going to the beach!
